Bead Blasting in Melbourne area

Hey guys, was wondering if anyone could recommend a bead blasting service in Melbourne, preferably Eastern or South Eastern (I'd travel to get quality, though). Some idea of prices would be good too. I got some red Tuff II's that need attention and I'm sick of the recurring dreams of riding my Mongoose. I need to actually get on this thing and taste the freedom. But I want it to look nice.
Thanks.

Wazza in Melb would be the man to see I'm guessing, I can't find his details but someone will know.

Going rate is about $40. I suggest first sand back all the easy to get parts of the Tuff such as the rim sides and spoke flats and then take to the bead blaster to finish them off. This will save a lot of blast time (and money). See if you can find someone thats done Tuffs before.
